Main Text Volume Chapter 222 The Secret of Sound
Speaking of rumors——
They were currently hundreds of meters high in the sky. Along with the changing clouds and mists, the magic falcon spread its wings and flew. The roaring wind slapped the exposed skin all the time.
In Angel's memory, although the sound of the wind was loud, the frequency seemed to have not changed.
The sound of the wind has not changed, how can it trigger the phantom node?
In other words, the sound used in the quaint illusion arranged by Sanders was not the sound of wind.
So what will it be?
Angel frowned tightly, ruling out the wind. Did he hear other sounds?
Birdsong? That's not right, the only bird around is the Demon Falcon. The demon falcon flew all the way, making no other noise except for the scream when it was injured just now.
It's not the singing of birds, but the flow of clouds? Probably not. The sound of cloud flow is too subtle, and Sanders can naturally arrange it with his method, but using the sound of cloud flow to test him is obviously a bit tricky and impossible.
Angel thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out. He turned to Sanders for help with doubtful eyes, and the latter silently pointed to a location.
That was the middle position on the Demon Falcon's back, and Sanders motioned Angel to sit here.
"Is there anything special about this position?" Angel came to the designated position and sat down in confusion.
About half a minute after Angel sat down, he suddenly felt a vibration under his buttocks, like a drum.
After another half minute, the second shock came.
Angel secretly thought in his heart: Is this... the heartbeat of the Demon Falcon?
After coming up with this answer, Angel's eyes suddenly lit up.
It wasn't until now that he suddenly realized that when he was trapped in the illusion just now, the sounds from the outside world were excluded by him, but he forgot that there were sounds within his own body!
If you look closely, the sounds in his body are actually more complicated and diverse.
In addition, Angel was in a crisis situation at that time and was about to be smashed into a meat pie. His heart contracted violently and his brain went blank, which in turn accentuated the beating of his heart like a drum.
Thump, thump, thump.
Angel stretched out his palm and pressed it on his chest, feeling the frequency of his heartbeat. His heartbeat had calmed down slightly at this time, but he could still feel the difference from the drumming heartbeat before.
"Are you here?" Sanders' voice reached his ears.
Angel nodded: "It's the sound of the heartbeat. It turns out that the sounds used to create the illusion are not only artificial sounds and natural sounds, but also physiological sounds in the human body."
At this moment, Angel felt as if he had glimpsed a corner of the sound illusion technique, but before he could be happy for a few minutes, Sanders poured cold water on him.
"Judging from your current level, you have a good accumulation of knowledge among your peers, and your way of thinking is up to standard. But your thinking width is still too narrow, and you are still stuck in the ignorance of mortals." Sanders said mercilessly: "You If you want to embark on the path of true knowledge, you must be more open-minded, otherwise, even if you are promoted to a formal wizard, you will just be lost in the crowd. "
Sanders' words made Angel's thoughts come to a halt again.
As Sanders said, his thinking is indeed a bit fixed. He only pays attention to the one-third of an acre of land in front of him, but forgets that there is a wider land and a wider sky.
Seeing Angel's expression return to calmness, Sanders raised the corners of his mouth imperceptibly.
"Back to the topic just now." Sanders said to Angel: "You are right, it is indeed the heartbeat. But have you discovered the role of the heartbeat?"
This question goes back to the original starting point: in the illusion that besieged Saka, what was the purpose of the Wanyin illusion?
In the same way, what is the function of heartbeat sound?
If we ask more simply, why does the Wanyin Phantom have a sound? What exactly does its sound do?
This question stumped Angel. He always felt that although he could not release the illusion of sound, he still understood the concept of sound illusion. But if I really asked him to explain the function of Wanyin's illusory voice, he was at a loss.
Angel recalled the notebook that Sanders gave him, which recorded the first sentence of the Level 1 trick "Way Sound Illusion", which directly defined the sound illusion: Sound Illusion, an illusion that uses sound to outline the human heart.
Angel thought about this sentence carefully: "Using sound to outline... the illusion of the human heart?"
Angel found that he seemed to have understood it wrong all along. The point of this sentence was not actually the sound or the illusion, but the human heart!
If "people's hearts" are the key point, then sound is actually a means used to disturb, confuse and even guide people's hearts!
Therefore, the sound of the heartbeat is not the focus of the Wanyin illusion that Sanders used just now. The point is that the sound of the heartbeat disrupts his thinking.
After a while, Angel came back from his thoughts and said calmly: "I have lost my ability to judge the outside world."
Sanders smiled: "It seems you have thought of it."
The judgment ability that Angel mentioned was actually that in the illusion just now, after being disturbed by the sound of his heartbeat, he lost his ability to judge everything in the outside world. First he started to be wary. He didn't trust outsiders and didn't believe that Sanders would save him. Immediately afterwards, he misjudged the surrounding environment. In fact, he had never moved, so there was no ripple in the wind, and there was no feeling of weightlessness under his feet. These obvious abnormal phenomena, with Angel's usual level of care, even in life and death, He will never ignore it at the critical moment.
Therefore, needless to say, that heartbeat sound actually interfered with his ability to judge his thinking.
Sanders: "Since you figured it out yourself, you should also have guessed the role of the wavy sound illusion in the illusion that trapped Saka?"
"It should be the same as my previous situation." Angel: "After being disturbed by the illusion of sound, I lost my ability to judge."
Sanders: "You got the answer right, but the process wrong."
Angel was stunned for a moment, with a puzzled expression.
"I just used the sound of your heartbeat to induce a near-death illusion that you will remember deeply, thereby interfering with your decision-making. You are right about this, but I used another method for Saka. "
"Hypnosis." Sanders was not trying to sell off: "The experiment to test your soul will take at least half a day. Use the sound of a pendulum to hypnotize him and let him lose his ability to judge in a beautiful sleep. This is the most labor-saving method. ”
Speaking of this, Sanders patted Angel on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Although Waanyin Illusion is only a level 1 trick, there is also a complex and huge system behind it. If you can figure it out so easily, then other wizards Why spend hundreds or thousands of years studying it?”
"Not only sound illusions, but other illusions are complex and changeable. However, most illusions involve the human heart. If you are interested in these, you can look for books on psychological research, which should be helpful for you to learn illusions. ”
…
Back on Magic Island, Angel was still thinking about the illusion that Sanders had used casually before.
A basic illusion that was so crude that its logic was flawed, combined with a confusing sound illusion, completely confused Angel.
Although it was a bit embarrassing in the end, Angel learned a lot from it.
If the basic illusion is simply to confuse your eyeballs, then the sound illusion can confuse your mind when used at a higher level. If they are used individually, each has its own shortcomings, but when combined, the illusion immediately changes from a piece of scattered sand to a qualitative change!
This is the most intuitive effect, telling Angel that in the wizarding world, 1+1 is not just equal to 2, and its answer may be unknown.
As soon as he landed, Angel found that the atmosphere in the manor was a little strange.
On weekdays, there are many phantom beasts on the Phantom Island, and the roar of birds and beasts is constant. Why is it so quiet today?
Angel followed Sanders, and as soon as he stepped through the door, he saw the black shadow servants standing solemnly in a row.
Immediately afterwards, a stagnant magic wave surrounded him.
Angel was stunned for a moment, and when he wanted to ask what was going on, he found that after he opened his mouth, nothing could come out.
Sound is disabled?
Level 1 magic silence? No, the silence technique is only for single people.
Is it a level 2 magic sound barrier? Before Angel entered the wizarding world, he had seen the power of the silent barrier from Moro.
No matter which one it is, daring to release this kind of group silence in the official wizard's mansion is definitely a provocation!
Even Flora probably wouldn't dare to do this.
Could it be that Sanders’ enemies are coming? Angel silently glanced at Sanders and found that he was frowning, saying nothing, and looking towards the end of the corridor with a puzzled expression.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Sanders." At this time, a man walked out of the corridor at the end.
The person who came was an old man with a tall and straight figure, wearing gray trousers, a white shirt and a brown plaid vest. Every detail of his appearance was neatly decorated, even the hair was neatly combed into a long hairstyle. Back your head.
Judging from Angel's first impression, he is a person who is very strict with himself.
"Your Excellency Rhine, how could you condescend to come to me?" Sanders took off his hat and gave a half salute to the visitor.
As Sanders saluted, the other black demon shadow servants around him also bowed in full.
When Angel saw this, he was a little confused about who the visitor was, but since even Sanders had to salute, he must be a big shot! Although Angel was a little uneasy, his face did not show any confusion, and he bowed along with the crowd.
The old man whom Sanders called "Your Excellency Rhine" ignored the others and walked up to Sanders with a hint of helplessness on his face: "You should have guessed it."
Sanders was silent for a moment: "Who is it?"
Rhine: "It's Samantha. She asked me to come over."
"It is indeed her. Apart from her, I can't think of anyone else who can make Lord Rhine personally take action. It seems that it will be difficult for me to refuse this time." Sanders said.
Rhine opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just sighed: "Oh...it doesn't have to be a chore this time. Let's go in and talk."
Rhine and Sanders walked toward the living room. Angel hesitated whether to follow them or simply turn around and go home.
At this moment, Sanders's voice came to his ears: "Don't hurry up and leave now. I have something to talk to you about later."
